Scott Johnson: Scraping the Sky
from Ojai: Talk of the Town · host Bret Bradigan
Scott Johnson is one of California's leading architects and designers. He joins the podcast to talk about his first commission in California, the Fox Plaza in Los Angeles, which, before it opened, served as a major character itself in "Die Hard," one of the most successful action films of all time. We also talk about his background, getting his undergraduate degree from Stanford and his Master's from Harvard, the place of architecture and design in defining our world, the Ojai Music Festival and his work as an abstract painter, and his recent publication of the book, "Uncommon Ground," about the conjunction of visual arts and architecture. We did not talk about the explosion of Krakatoa, Thom Browne's latest collection or New York vs. Los Angeles as the food capital of the world. The episode is a re-release from 2021.
